Arizona Cardinals Given their
proximity to Las Vegas, the Cards

Baltimore Ravens Any team
that derives its name from an Edgar
Allan Poe poem is worthy of casual

league-high 14 years since their last
playoff appearance.

Rivera made so many gutsy play
calls that he gained the nickname
"Riverboat Ron."

sometimes feels set in its ways, the
Bears think outside of the box. One
example: the hiring of Canadian
Football League coach Marc
Trestman to take over last year.
∑

Dalton and the Bengals losing in
the fi rst round of the playoffs for
